Experience a dazzling blend of art and robata-grilled delights at Sexy Fish, where the atmosphere is as lively as the vibrant dishes.
"The Verdict: A waste of time, money, and a nice outfit. The clubstaurant of all clubstaurants, Sexy Fish’s reputation reaches far beyond this city. You don’t come to this Berkeley Square spot looking for value for money, or in search of London’s best sushi. This is an OTT, Damien Hirst gyrating mermaid art-filled restaurant with velvet jacket-wearing waitstaff who look like they’ve had a permanent headache since their first shift. Probably thanks to the DJ whose job it is to make any conversation about how underwhelming the crispy duck is impossible to hear." - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, jake missing, heidi lauth beasley
"Everyone will have an opinion about the name but what’s indisputable is that this is a very good looking restaurant, with works by Frank Gehry and Damien Hirst, and a stunning ceiling by Michael Roberts. The fish comes with various Asian influences but don’t ignore the meat dishes like the beef rib skewers." - Michelin Inspector
"We all remember the time a certain singer/songwriter got turned away from Sexy Fish for wearing a hoodie and The Daily Mail hired three new writers to cover the “story”, right? Well even if your brain doesn’t maintain useful information like that, the moral is that there will be no hoodies here. Because if this Asian fusion Mayfair restaurant was a person, it would be a big, over the top, naff one. Which is great news for you—it means all the paid extras (other diners) won’t ruin the background of your perfectly curated selfies with their Adam Sandler-esque wardrobes. While the food is mostly overpriced and underwhelming, it is, undeniably, a fun place to be. So embrace what feels like a Star Wars cantina brought to you by the producers of Love Island, try to avoid making eye contact with the naked mermaid sculptures, and make a grilled cheese toastie when you get home.

"Sexy Fish is a real mood. The mood being ‘I’m fucking fantastic and about to spend enough money to get an alarmed text from Monzo’. This seriously flash restaurant and late night bar in Mayfair has some pretty bang average food, but the kind of setting that’ll make your ex think you’ve moved onto a better life with a family of rich, gold-wielding mermaids. Come here in the evening to laugh at the DJ and inevitably refer to yourself as NO 1 SEXY FISHHH on the internet after your fourth cocktail." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"You wouldn’t come to Sexy Fish to spend your own money. Unless you have lots of it and a warped interest in wasting it in Mayfair’s tackiest restaurant. This is a place to be taken to, once. To laugh when the DJ comes out but to leave soon afterwards. Because eating crab and bone marrow covered in a cement-like truffle sauce, while listening to 'Beefa-style house, is only fun for so long. But if you’re with someone who really wants to party and peruse a menu, this is the place. " - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver
